by Rhino Contests

The people of Rhino have offered to give one of you lucky people a complete copy of the 100-song, 3CD+DVD box set from The Ramones. We announced the set in June.

The box titled Weird Tales of the Ramones and will include classic material and videos as well as relatively rare B-sides and covers. The career-spanning collection was compiled by the late Johnny Ramone before his death in 2004. As well as a wealth of music, the box includes a comic book highlighting 25 comic book artists paying visual tribute to the band. Artists included in the book include Rick Altergott ("Doofus"), Mary Fleener, Sergio Aragones (Mad Magazine), Carol Lay, John Pound (Garbage Pail Kids/Meanie Babies), Bill Griffiths ("Zippy the Pinhead"), Xaime Hernandez ("Love and Rockets") and John Holmstrom who illustrated the back sleeve of Rocket to Russia and the front of Road to Ruin.

It has a lot of stuff. You probably want one. I know I do. But it would be kind of shady for me to win.

You can check out the player/e-card here. The label has also posted a "12 song listening party player" and you can check that out here with streams avalable in Windows Media and Realplayer formats.
